When reading Stephen Spender's World within world, in a Dutch translation, my attention was drawn to David Lloyd George. Stephen tells about his father Harold Spender, who wrote a biography (according to some critics a hagiography) on Lloyd George in 1920. Stephen also mentions his uncle John Alfred Spender, but in this lemma something is wrong; J.A. Spender has different parents and they seem not related. Could someone take a look at this? J.A. Spender has strong opinions on Lloyd George; his lack of knowledge in geography, history and economy. This is why I got interested. Taksen (talk) 06:52, 6 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

I have just checked Who's Who who give Dr and Mrs J. K. Spender as parents of both JA and EH Spender, with which both biographies on wikipedia currently agree. Graemp (talk) 16:58, 6 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
